Some of the LDCC Pack braving the cold and snow to ring in the New Year.

Cyclocross in December? In the snow? Sure, why not! The New Years’ Eve Cyclocross has become a tradition for the past 8 years and always promises, er, challenging conditions. Although warm out, racers were treated to soft, slushy snow which was a real slog to pedal through, a couple of ramps in the course to launch off, and a “choose your own adventure” maze with three possible ways through. Your Lapdogs Cycling Club Race Team was out, and had a strong showing both on the course and at the pub after the race.
